I am facing custom sorting issue with mvcjqgrid plugin.
As per my need column data should be sort in numerical order.
Column data = {M18, M2, M9, M1}, If i sort the column than column data should be shown as M1, M2, M9, M18 ....
What I have done : I have added one method into plugin to add line into jquery grid "sorttype:myCustomSorting" but javascript method is not calling.
`JavaScript function :
function myCustomSorting(cell,obj){
//do something....
}`
need some suggestion!!
Passing a function to sorttype is currently not supported on MvcJqGrid.
Only the following values are allowed:
https://github.com/robinvanderknaap/MvcJqGrid/blob/master/src/MvcJqGrid/Enums/SortType.cs#L8
You could try to use OnSortCol on the grid itself:
https://github.com/robinvanderknaap/MvcJqGrid/blob/master/src/MvcJqGrid/Grid.cs#L1114
You can specify a custom sort function on this property. The function is raised immediately after a sortable column is clicked and before sorting the data.
Pull-request is always welcome if you want to use sorttype ;) Shouldn't be too hard too implement.
